Shifting national surveillance of Shigella infections toward geno-serotyping by the development of a tailored Luminex assay and NGS workflow.
Microbiologyopen (2019) Keywords: Luminex multiplex Public Health Surveillance sequencing Shigella Abstract: The phylogenetically closely related Shigella species and enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC) are ...
Strong increase of true and false positive mycobacterial cultures sent to the National Reference Centre in Belgium, 2007 to 2016.
by PCR in the NRC). We reviewed mycobacterial species identified and assessed trends over time of proportions of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) vs complex (MTB c), and false positive cultures vs ...
Occurrence and identification of spore-forming bacteria in skim-milk powders
bacterial and spore enumeration tests to understand the variety of spore-forming bacteria population. Using 16S rDNA sequencing, the species were identified for 269 isolates that were representative of the ...
Black aspergilli: A remaining challenge in fungal taxonomy?
species in our data set. MALDI- TOF MS was able to distinguish between A. brasiliensis, A. brunneoviolaceus, A. neoniger, A. niger, A. tubingensis, and A. welwitschiae of A. sect. Nigri. In the routine ...
Seroprevalence of border disease virus and other pestiviruses in sheep in Algeria and associated risk factors.
climate, landscape, flock management and presence of other ruminant species in the farm. CONCLUSION: These high seroprevalence rates suggest that BDV is widespread and is probably endemic all over the ...
Comparison of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) systems for the identification of moulds in the routine microbiology laboratory.
via sequencing. Strains were then identified using the VMS v3.0, the MLT, and the MSI software applied on MLT spectra. Rates of correct identifications to the species, to the complex, and to the genus ...
Evaluation of three MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry libraries for the identification of filamentous fungi in three clinical microbiology laboratories in Manitoba, Canada.
genus identification (≥94.9%) than conventional methods (86.4%). MALDI- TOF MS identified 73.3% of isolates to species level compared to only 31.7% by conventional methods. The MSI library demonstrated ...
Longitudinal monitoring of Culicoides in Belgium between 2007 and 2011: local variation in population dynamics parameters warrant cautious use of monitoring data.
Longitudinal Studies Male Orthobunyavirus Population Dynamics Risk Assessment Seasons Species Specificity Abstract: BACKGROUND: Several European countries suffered important economic losses during the past ...
